Red deer Cervus elaphus blink more in larger groups [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Most animals need to spend time being vigilant for predators, at the expense of other activities such as foraging. Group‐living animals can benefit from the shared vigilance effort of other group members, with individuals reducing personal vigilance ...

A polygenic basis for birth weight in a wild population of red deer (Cervus elaphus) [PDF]

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2023
The genetic architecture of traits under selection has important consequences for the response to selection and potentially for population viability. Early QTL mapping studies in wild populations have reported loci with large effect on trait variation ...

GPS Based Daily Activity Patterns in European Red Deer and North American Elk (Cervus elaphus): Indication for a Weak Circadian Clock in Ungulates

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Long-term tracking using global positioning systems (GPS) is widely used to study vertebrate movement ecology, including fine-scale habitat selection as well as large-scale migrations.

Anthrax in Red Deer (Cervus elaphus), Italy

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
To the Editor: Anthrax is hypoendemic in Italy; a few outbreaks occurred yearly involving unvaccinated herbivores on pastures in central and southern regions and the major islands. Multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) with 8 variable-number tandem repeats (VNTRs) of Italian isolates of Bacillus anthracis has identified 9 ...

The genome sequence of the red deer, Cervus elaphus Linnaeus 1758

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2021
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Cervus elaphus (the red deer; Chordata; Mammalia; Artiodactyla; Cervidae). The genome sequence is 2,887 megabases in span.

The biomolecular characterization of a finger ring contextually dated to the emergence of the Early Neolithic from Syltholm, Denmark [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
We present the analysis of an osseous finger ring from a predominantly early Neolithic context in Denmark. To characterize the artefact and identify the raw material used for its manufacture, we performed micro-computed tomography scanning ...

Phylogeny and evolution of the genus Cervus (Cervidae, Mammalia) as revealed by complete mitochondrial genomes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages are recognized as important components of intra- and interspecific biodiversity, and allow to reveal colonization routes and phylogeographic structure of many taxa.

Whole-genome sequencing of Tarim red deer (Cervus elaphus yarkandensis) reveals demographic history and adaptations to an arid-desert environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2020
Background The initiation of desert conditions in the Tarim Basin in China since the late Miocene has led to the significant genetic structuring of local organisms.
